The Taco Bell Naked Chicken Chips come as the latest snack from the brand that looks to merge tasty meat with a crispy shell that will satisfy a craving for protein.
Looking almost like tortilla chips, the chips are marinated wedge-shaped chicken that is made using only white meat before being deep-fried to produce a crispy outer shell. The chips are served with a nacho cheese dipping sauce and can be purchased either on their own or enjoyed as part of one of the brand's meal deals.
The Taco Bell Naked Chicken Chips come in two size options that provide a serving of either six or 12 chips, accordingly. The chips are set to launch at participating locations in the United States starting on May 11.
